Checkup Time now comes twice a year

As your cat ages, regular checkups at the veterinary practice become more important than ever. In fact, at this stage of your pet's life, it is recommended that they receive a thorough examination every 6 months, as adult cats can age as much as 4 years (in human terms) within the period of one calendar year. Besides the usual complete physical examination, your veterinary surgeon may conduct a urine and faecal analysis and a full blood screen. If your cat goes outdoors, or is part of a multi-feline household, he or she may also recommend that your pet be tested for the presence of feline leukemia or immunodeficiency virus.
